E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
I was born some time ago
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
In this very room
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
There’s many who have come and gone
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
Maybe one more soon
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
Seasons come, seasons go
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
Some talking in between
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
Staring out the window now
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
At all that I have been
[Chorus]
E A Cadd9 Bm
Someone is singing some crazy song
F#m
On the painstain radio
E A Cadd9 B7
My hands they are ringing as I gaze upon
B
These frozen fields of snow
[Verse]
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
My father was a violent man
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
He died in '63
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
My mother broke her silence then
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
She looked after me
[Chorus]
E A Cadd9 Bm
We dug her deeper well for water
F#m E
She told me water makes you free
A Cadd9 B7
She lost her only daughter
B
Her name was Mary-Lee
[Verse]
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
They called me up and threw me in
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
And there I lost my heart
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
I forgot where I had been
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
Till I wake up in the dark
[Chorus]
E A Cadd9 Bm
I heard her voice saying you’re going home
F#m
As my blood begin to flow
E A Cadd9 B7
My mama was calling and beckoning
B
From the frozen fields of snow
[Verse]
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
Something out there is going to ground
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
Lying under open skies
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
Birds of pray are swooping down
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
Picking out their eyes
[Chorus]
E A Cadd9 Bm
Spring time is coming and is none too soon
F#m
I think it’s time for me to go
E A Cadd9 B7
I can see color green and poken through
B
Through the frozen field of snow
[Verse]
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
My secrets are whispering
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
In this fading light
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
I have killed and I have loved
E A F#m7 Asus4/D F#m7 A
Time it will decide
